Additional Information
Stanley Kubrick's adaptation of Vladimir Nabokov's controversial LOLITA is a wicked satire of sexual obsession, sadomasochism, and fetishism. When mild-mannered professor Humbert Humbert (James Mason) arrives in the small town of Ramsdale, New Hampshire, he is immediately set upon by his landlady, Charlotte Haze (Shelley Winters), and her adolescent daughter, Lolita (Sue Lyon). Although Humbert gets involved with Charlotte, it is Lolita with whom he becomes obsessed. When Charlotte sends her daughter away to summer camp (the aptly named Camp Climax), Humbert becomes consumed with jealousy. When he finally takes Lolita out of camp and heads out alone with her, he is pestered along the way by Clare Quilty (played magnificently by Peter Sellers), who threatens to expose him. But nothing can break the hold Lolita has over Humbert.<BR>From the opening credits sequence--a close-up of a man's hand (with a wedding ring) carefully polishing a young girl's toenails--Kubrick's LOLITA burns with sexual energy that is biting, ironic, and darkly comic as it follows the debasement of an intelligent, worldly man in a series of carefully choreographed long takes that boils over with psychosexual tension. Although little physical contact is shown, Kubrick hints at it beautifully, especially in the drive-in scene in which both Charlotte and Lolita grab on to Humbert's hands. And yet given the serious nature of the subject matter, Kubrick pauses long enough to include a riotous slapstick scene of Humbert and a bellhop struggling over a cot as Lolita sleeps quietly on the bed, as well as Quilty playing Ping-Pong with a seemingly endless supply of balls. Stanley Kubrick's highly controversial masterwork is a fascinating look at pedophilia and sexual taboos that lead to obsession and murder.

Book arrived safely packaged in perfect order. Item as described, new. Thank you Rarewaves Outlet. Fascinating book, great addition to my collection. Great price. Would recommended this seller. No communication needed with seller, so don't know what to rate with regards to communication (please dont take lack of feedback on this matter as a negative). Thanks again.

The blue vinyl colour is darker than in the generic picture used (see my photo of actual vinyl colour). Nevertheless, it’s still a nice package with the very nice illustration booklet inside. Delivery time is a little stretched, but with free postage and a good value package, this has to be expected (delay was probably caused by the royal mail anyway). Communication was excellent and I’m glad I made my purchase from Rarewaves Outlet. Thumbs Up!

    Fab Film

    Brilliant black and white film. Saw it years ago on the TV and loved it. Now I have my own copy. James Mason and Peter Sellers are just the best actors.

    title is to the point, the central character of the book and film

    This is a turgid film, slow moving with wooden characters, especially the one played by James Mason, the leading man. I lost interest in in after over an hour of dismal viewing

    Unpleasant

    Going through Kubrick's back catalogue so had to see this. It is rather unpleasant and focuses on a middle aged man's obsession with an underage but savvy girl and his eventual degeneration into murder. Well acted, witty at times and slightly different to Nobakov's book. This review cannot do it justice. You could write a thesis on it and apparently some do. Don't stand so close to me. Next stop: Spartacus.

    A Version Kubrick Had to Make

    This film is well-acted, directed and written. The thing is, the book, Lolita was not exactly going to be able to be made into a major film in 1962. Kubrick did it, though. It's definitely worth watching--if for nothing else than the superb performances by the cast, particularly, James Mason, Peter Sellers and Shelley Winters.
